The Czech Climate Change Adaptation Strategy is a national adaptation strategy and is in line with the <a href="https://mzp.gov.cz/cz/adaptacni_strategie_eu" target="_self">EU Adaptation Strategy</a>.
This strategy assesses the likely impacts of climate change, makes proposals for concrete adaptation measures, and discusses legislative and economic consequences. The document further focuses on the monitoring and analysis of adaptation to the environment and public health, but also on forestry, agriculture, water regime in the landscape and water management, urbanised landscape, biodiversity and ecosystem services, tourism, transport, industry, and energy, emergencies and protection of the population.
The updated Adaptation Strategy reflects advances in the knowledge base and articulates goals for 2030 with a vision to 2050. Compared to the original document from 2015, there are, among others, updates on climate change trends and impacts or a more detailed analysis of financial costs and economic instruments.
